New Delhi: The Union Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI) has set the stage for a second round under the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for the manufacturing of Advanced Chemistry Cells (ACC) in the country.
The Ministry made a detailed presentation on the scope and objectives of the global tender for creating 10 GWh ACC capacity at a meeting held on Monday.
There was robust participation from industry stakeholders and the government organisations, including NITI Aayog, Ministry of Power and MNRE, marking a significant step towards bolstering India’s capabilities in ACC manufacturing, the MHI said on Tuesday.
Further clarifications on technical specifications, eligibility criteria, and evaluation process were provided. It was also informed that the last date for receiving queries from bidders is March 4.
